Emi Yamasaki McLaughlin is a Washington State Licensed Midwife (LM). She earned her Master's in Midwifery from Bastyr University in 2012. Emi is a professional member of the Midwives' Association of Washington State.
Emi is committed to building a more just and equitable system around birth. She strives to make midwifery care more accessible to communities of color, teens, LGBTQIA folks, and other marginalized identities by ensuring her clients feel safe, seen, and supported while under her care. Emi also works passionately to see these identities reflected in midwifery and birth worker professions through preceptorships and community activism. Her Master's thesis focused on increasing the racial and ethnic diversity of direct-entry midwives.
When she's not supporting birthing people, Emi enjoys karaoke, baking and snuggling her two cats.
